If girls are allowed to read, then they might be able to figure out how terribly they’re treated. We obviously can’t have that.
So the under 18 mother who was forced to carry a child can’t take that child to a library or even go herself.
Yep, that tracks.
And can’t go to the library.
This is by design.
As a rabblerouser above 18, if I browse the Restricted Stacks and accidentally forget them in the YA stacks, how much shit would those librarians be put through?
Why bother with that? I say go full Robin Hood, steal the restricted books and give them away to the youth. Or, if you’ve got the resources, run a black market library. It would be kinda like a speakeasy, with a password and a doorman and shit. Call it a “readeasy”? Since you’re not supposed to talk in a library and all that.
